Freddie Jackson (born Frederick Anthony Jackson, 2 October 1956, in Harlem, New York) is an American soul singer. He was an important figure in R&B during the 1980s and early 1990s. Among his well-known hits are "Rock Me Tonight (For Old Time's Sake)," "Jam Tonight," "Do Me Again," and "You are My Lady. Jackson was trained as a gospel singer from an early age, singing at the White Rock Baptist Church.

Jackson’s debut album, also titled Rock Me Tonight, appeared shortly afterwards and soon found itself at the top of the US R&B albums chart, where it stayed for 14 weeks. While the title track demonstrated Jackson’s prowess as a silky-throated balladeer, there were a clutch of uptempo songs – such as the effervescent ‘He’ll Never Love You (Like I Do)’ (which was a Top 10 US R&B smash in early ’86) and the chugging ‘I Wanna Say I Love You’ – that showed that Jackson could also cut the mustard as. a master of get-on-down dancefloor grooves. Even so, it was on ballads where Jackson could. Though it is defined by mid-80s production values, it’s an album that has aged well, largely because of the quality of its material and Freddie Jackson’s sterling vocal performances. It remains a compelling touchstone of 80s R&B.

Oh, come on and rock me, ooh, girl Oh, come on and rock me, ooh, girl. Now I've got myself together And I know just what I want And right now I know that it's you, you. Rock me tonight for old times sake Would you, baby, hey? Roll with me tonight for old times sake Ooh. Ooh, girl, I'm gonna love you real good Come on, let me do it now, you know I could I really miss the way you squeeze and moan And call out my name, woo, you can call me, baby. I remember you like to take your time To get in the mood, ooh, yes, you do, yeah But once you're in the mood You like to go, shake to the groove, oh yes, you do, girl.

Here on his debut album, Freddie Jackson enjoyed admirable chart success with each of the four singles. The initial single, "Rock Me Tonight (For Old Times Sake)," was a very rhythmic ballad with an easy-flowing chorus enhanced by some nostalgic lyrics. It hit the Billboard R&B charts in April 1985, and stayed afloat for 26 weeks. The song peaked at the number one position, and held it for six straight weeks.
